Helloooooo LW's!!!  

I had a WOW trip to the grocery store before work. I didn't want to stop after work so I thought the whole way there about what I needed and kept wondering if I really had time to do this.  I pulled into the store at 9:02, ran into the store grabbed a cart, ran through the store (I'm sure I looked crazy), grabbed 2 things of bananas, 2 roasts, 3 lbs. of ground beef, 2 containers of mashed potatoes, rolled oats, and 4 large cans of soup, paid, put them in the car, returned the buggy and had my butt back in the car at 9:15.  I walked into my office at 9:24. I'm pretty sure I couldn't have done that before WLS....hahaha! 

You are probably thinking I am feeling better...right?  I'm still cramping and my back hurts but I am getting a pretty good nights sleep which helps a lot.

I'm glad you're sleeping.  I barely got 5 hours last night as I just couldn't stop coughing.  I'm not too bad during the day (not great either) but the moment I put my head on the pillow - that's it and I did it for a couple of hours before falling asleep!! :-S

I probably won't post much for the next couple of weeks as I'll be in sunny Tunisia and I'm not too sure what the internet access will be like.

AWE...I hope you can get that cough under control.  My DH coughs during the day when he is moving around.

We will miss you!  Don't forget to get back into the routine of posting when you come back.  That's when we lose some of the posters.

Sounds Good!

Hope you have a great time on your trip and hope you feel better!!  We will miss you.

Aw, thanks Linda.  I got about 6 hours last night, so I'm slowly improving.

Have a great vacation!!!!  

Thanks Jody.  Sun, food and R&R what more could anyone want ;-)

My back hurt with my gall bladder but I think I remember you have had yours out.  I hope they get you figured out soon.

Frustrating day at work.  I have calls in to all kinds of folks and no one will call me back.  I am so tired of this transistion stuff.

It's been a drizzly day but Thor and I walked and I am headed to muscle pump in a little while.

I got my gall bladder out a few years ago.  It was one of the first questions the Dr. asked me because I forgot to write it on the form.

I hope you got all of your calls in and everyone gets back to you.  That can be very frustrating when you are trying to get things accomplished.

It's been pretty nice here.  High 50's and tomorrow and Thursday it's going to be in the high 60's.  Trick or Treat is Thursday so I hope the rain they are calling for holds off.

My DD is still loving muscle pump and Zumba.  It seems to be a great stress reliever for her.

Good Menu Price!
